Captain Jack lyrics

Artist  : Billy Joel 
Song : Captain Jack



 Send "Captain Jack" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

Saturday night and you're still hangin'
around
Tired of living in your one horse
town
you'd like to find a little hole in the
ground,
for awhile..

So you go to the
village in your tie dyed jeans
And you stare
at the junkies and the closet queens
It's like
some pornographic magazine
And you
smile

(chorus)

Captain Jack will
get you high tonight
And take you to your
special island
Captain Jack will get you by
tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be
smilin'

Oh yeah,...

Your sister's
gone out, she's on a date
You just sit at home
and masturbate
Your phone is gonna ring soon,
but you just can't wait
For that
call

So you stand on the corner in your
New English clothes
and you look so polished
from your hair down to your toes
Ah but still
your fingers gonna pick your nose
After
all,..

(chorus)

So you decide to
take a holiday
You got your tape deck and your
brand new Chevrolet
Ah, there ain't no place to
go anyway
What for?

So you got
everything, ah, but nothing's cool
They just
found your father in the swimming pool
And you
guess you won't be going back to
school
Anymore.

(chorus)

So you
play your albums, and you smoke your pot
and
you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot
Oh
but still you're aching for the things you haven't
got
What went wrong?

And if you can't
understand why your world is so dead,
why
you've got to keep in style and feed your
head
Well you're 21 and still your mother
makes your bed,
And that's too
long

(chorus)
(chorus)
